This will provide Romania with 1 year in which to fulfill that good faith pledge made to us some 4 years ago. If the Romanians are serious about their need for trade and their desire to be equal partners then they should give us clear indication of that desire. So far. we have seen only religious persecution. blatant violations of human rights. and the imposition of barriers established to prevent emigration. It is time to pay more than token lip service to human rights. Only by once again setting an example. will the United States be considered credible. only by standing up for the policies of free emigration and human rights will the nations of the world again take us at our word. I urge my colleagues to vote yes on this resolution. and send the message that we are once again willing to wear that mantle of moral leadership.
